My first Beauty Box~ MODBOX

I always wish to try for something new to save my face =..= LOL but at the same time i scared that my face was sensitive to the product and then I need to throw away the whole product with no mercy. FYI my face was super sensitive but at the same time it is oily too. Currently I am under treatment from New York~ which is so costly to me although my face really improved well with their products. 

I have no idea how should I try on something new until I read about beauty box from my favorite blogger my lovely blue sky. Oh gosh I really love her writing so much, all her thoughts and sharing on beauty, travelling and foodies. This is her link on beauty box: http://mylovelybluesky.com/?s=modbox. She introduced quite a couple brands of beauty box in her blog, such as modbox, wonderbox and vanity trove. I am a poor student with little scholarship so I cant afford those branded skin care, and beauty box provides me a chance to try on something new because it is all about sample size products from skin care, hair shampoo until nails!! wow

After some readings, I was attracted with modbox. the biggest reason it caught my attention was I can get it at the price of RM15 ( RM 9 for the products and RM6 for the delivery fees) with 3 sample products. Cheapest among the other beauty box that I know! And I do not tied to any purchase package, which means I can get it anytime in any month that I spotted something that I want ^^ quite worthy for me haha. And one more reason is I was not sure whether it can arrive safely in my hostel or not, after my fren had a bad experience in delivery. I decided to try it out first as my first experience, with good service I received it on the 3rd working day after I placed my order and I was so excited to unbox it!! haha. 

First try to write on skin care, so might sounds funny but I try not to write it like I am enjoying food? haha

The outlook of my first beauty box from Modbox~ one nice thing from Modbox is we can choose the 3 items out of the 7 choices that we want. while another beauty box: wonderbox is something like a surprising box. will try it out on my next order? haha 

What I like about tis box is it is just simple, nice and recyclable. cardboard box which is environmental friendly ^^ and I can make it like a storage box next time instead of spent RM5 from Daiso haha.

TAdaaaa!!! the contents of my Modbox. I was so happy to read the card from Modbox. Yes you made my day too. I like the way they wrote: pamper yourself as you deserve to be. Ya, time to pamper myself. feel so sorry to myself for the past few weeks. hehe. so there is 3 items in total: 
  1. Murad Resurgence Hydrating toner ( 15ml)
  2. Human Nature Strengthening Shampoo with Cream Foam (50ml)
  3. Ronasutra 2 in 1 mineral foundation & powder ( 1g) 

Murad Resurgence Hydrating Toner 
I got the 15ml as the sample size. The full size 180ml costs around RM128. here is some description from modbox about this:
Rehydrate skin with this bestselling toner from Murad that balances and neutralises surface impurities. Rooted in Murad's proprietary system for optimising cell hydration and skin health, this toner will help you restore your skin's suppleness to its former glory. apply over cleansed face before moisturising for a refreshing treat to your skin!

huuu.... i used it yesterday night and this morning, it absorbed well into the skin and it is not sticky. the fragrance is not very strong so it is still acceptable to me. Will consider to bring it out in my travel kit for my next trip hehe as it is very convenient. I used it 2 days continuously as my morning hydrating toner and the effect is not bad. I seldom use moisturiser in the morning so my face wont be so sticky oily in the morning and so a hydrating toner is just nice to keep my water-oil balance haha. 

Human nature Strengthening Shampoo with cream foam 
it comes in some different size as : 50ml for RM11.90, 200ml for RM22.90 and 500ml for RM44.90. 
Strengthen hair and reduce hair fall by up to 80% with this all-natural, SLS-free strengthening shampoo! it is rich in Philippine coco nectar and hydrolyzed proteins that rebuild hair and help it retain moisture. Shake well, add a few drops of water to the shampoo in your hand before lathering it up onto hair, and enjoy stronger, healthier tresses. 

So what is SLS? this first cross my mind. SLS is sodium lauryl sulfate, which is widely used chemically in personal hygiene products, and some evidence claims that it is related to skin irritation and cancer 0.o one of the SLS action is protein denaturing, which the chemical structure of SLS reduces or eliminates the cell's ability to heal itself. OK I learn something haha. So let's see does it really control well for hair fall haha. Tried it for this morning, not bad. the scalp was quite refreshing. 

Ronasutra 2-in-1 mineral foundation & powder ( 8g for RM 48)
like second skin to your face, this 100% mineral powder gives you excellent coverage and a dewy finish that looks so natural and smooth, your jaw will drop. after moisturising, gently dab the powder onto your face with a sponge, layering more powder on areas that need extra coverage, Take care, as the powder is ultrafine, and little goes a long way. No liquid foundation is needed. 

Well this sounds attractive to me as I was searching for a good foundation recently. The one I was using recently was BB foundation from Maybeline. I heard about mineral foundation before, and I just google it ( just now haha). http://www.webmd.com/beauty/makeup/whats-up-with-mineral-makeup. look not bad, hope that my face wont look oily and sticky with this foundation anymore? haha. You have no idea how bad the feel was when all the powder stick together like flour when it is oily, yuckksss. will use it in my next outing ^^ 

and a close look of the mineral foundation!! 

Well I am not very pro in make up and skin care, so I cant really write a good review here. but i will improve, so my blog wont look so deadly bored with all foods haha. going to purchase another one on November, so surprise me plz Modbox!! haha. good night =))
